Promises to Keep
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
Promises to Keep (PTK) is a queer, furry, safe-for-work (16+) visual novel. Please be warned that while entirely safe-for-work, PTK does feature themes of religious & familial trauma, injury, mental illness, minor body horror, and homophobia. Some scenes may not be suitable for individuals with epilepsy (but there are in-game warnings for these scenes). v0.6 is now available (up to Day 3 of every route). This version has around 10 hours of content, featuring an original soundtrack of 20+ songs, 50+ beautifully drawn backgrounds and fully-illustrated CGs, and 100+ unique character sprites. Find us on Twitter and support us on Patreon for early game updates, exclusive content, art raffles, and if you’d like to be featured in PTK as a cameo!
A promise is the greatest, most significant thing anyone can make, in a reality where nothing is permanent. They are guarantees we make to one another, knowing that guarantees are fruitless; their existence contradicts the fleeting, temporary nature of our universe. Yet, they live on in the face of this futility.
So, what happens when the promises you make to yourself go cold? When your promises to others are left empty?
PTK follows the journey of a post-college snow leopard after returning to his childhood home. After a year of wishful thinking, living in the footsteps of his past and the childhood promises he has yet to fulfill, he's convinced there's nothing more for him here. Then, disaster strikes.
Join him in a story of deep self-discovery, reunion, and light-hearted romance as he grows with a vibrant group of individuals brought together by unlikely circumstances.
** Please note that all content is subject to change as the game undergoes further development, and that the current version may not fully represent the final game. **

fury say les slep togeher an fury mak mi go in fury
The poem this is named after, Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening, reminds me of when I was a kid and my mom would read me that poem from the book of poems we had. It's a good memory, I was reminded of it while playing this. Thank you for that.
Characters so good it makes me wish polyamory was allowed
Why everyone likes that bad Rofi?
I feel like his whole personality it's fake and forced (not hate to him tho it's just how I feel)
𝗢𝗠𝗚! 𝗜 𝗟𝗢𝗩𝗘 𝗥𝗢𝗙𝗜 🐶🧡
NONONO NOT THE JAR! NOOOO!
We all need a friend like Rofi
There are visual novels about horror, about the supernatural, about being whisked away to far off lands or other dimensions; and then there's this. One that feels so genuine and real, that one can find themselves getting lost in it. Despite it being short (for now), I am glad that I took the dive to download this.
Thank you.
hunter my beloved <33 this vn is rlly sweet and wholesome, couldnt reccomend more :]

I identify the most with Ollie and Artemis, by far - but everyone is adorable, and I can't wait for more :)
This has been one of the more moving reading experiences I've had so far. Almost every route has left me in absolute shambles over these incredibly created characters. I love everything about this, the music, the artwork, the writing, everything struck a resonant chord with me.
The amount of text felt short to me but that's only because I loved it so much, I couldn't stop reading it. I seriously am anxious for more of this, keep doing what you guys are doing, you're doing great work.
cute game. wish for more ollie content in the future
i concur, def need more of the nerdy din
ollie my babyy <3 :(
Which character should i have a blind obsession with? 🤔
all. do all routes because why not.
I did. I love all these goobers, I need to scoop em up and and protect them from this cruel worllldddd qwq
i litterally need leo's backstory at day 4
Without spoiling, there's some red text over some red background assets in the first part of the 0.6 update and it makes it REALLY hard to read, I just thought that should be put out there.
Otherwise beautiful update!
Do you need to be a furry to play these games? I'm not a furry but it's interesting.
Just play what you like. It's not that complicated
no
Man i loved this vn still do i really fell in love witb it and its art stule i hope to see more, i really love the rofi character hes a cutie, Thanks for this game ^w^
Imagine an ending where we may not disengage with anyone (be withdrawn), or we may socialize less frequently with everyone. And in the end after all the events, we still move away, alone..... You could call it a harsh bad ending
(Maybe I can make art on this ending I_I)
OMG, I can not tell you how obsessed I am with this game! I got to the end of hunters path and tbh I’m really sad it ended so soon 😭😭. I hope there is more days for him! 10 out of 10 game.
real, though i'm rofi fan
I feel like the devs will do rofi because how much people like him. After they update him I hope they do hunter
it's selected by vote of 10$+ patrons, probably Theo or Rofi's first
Rofi and Hunter have claimed my heart. Looking forward for future updates!! <33
i'm curious what more backstory would rofi and leo has insert hunter thinking
I NEED MORE OF THEM, this is such an adorable vn, 100% one of the best ive ever played, AWESOME!!!
So cute! Love Hunter and Rofi :]
Does anyone know if the music from the game is posted somewhere? I wanna be able to just chill and listen to it without needing the VN open on my phone or laptop.
An OST album is available on Bandcamp! Check out our recent posts here for more info :3
I love this VN it meake's me sreatch the air out of happiness and i refuse to play it fore to long bc it meake's me extremely happy and i don't want to finish it tyes is my new favorite VN
for some reason i cannot download 0.6 it keeps terminating the process and saying that it was interrupted.
Sorry to hear — what kind of device are you on?
Nevermind I got it to work
LET ME HUG THEO AND COMFORT HIM NOWWW! (Really hoping there's more of his route in the future.)
This is by far the best VN I've ever read, I love the music and how it matches the moods in the story, the character design is amazing and so cute lol. I've only done Rofi's route so far and I already can't get enough. To everyone that is working on this VN, you're amazing. I hope to see more updates in the future. (Especially that doofus dog :3)
I can't wait for 0.7 I hope it's a continuation on rofi or theo route's also Ollie's route is amazing so far
this dev team must be good me cause going from v0.3 to v0.6 in that short amount of time is crazy to me
REAL
can't wait for 0.7 for sure and i wish it's rofi's
Change the picture (or the name) when you, Update the game
HEAR ME OUT!!! Ollie "big brother" is insanely hot
after this update i think its safe to say i have never related to a fictional character more in my life
Same he is basically me but older
Ollies update is amazing <3 I love his charakter, the way he thinks and see's the Universe. Keep up the good work :) I haven't even tried any of the other routes, but thats always something i have i hard time in VN's, i can't pick another route because i would feel bad for the one charakter i really care about.
